Solidus eCare 6.0 provides skills-based routing for all types of media – voice, fax, email, SMS, chat – meaning contact centres can respond to changing ways in which customers wish to interact with them. Solidus eCare 6.0 supports up to 10,000 agents, regardless of location, handles 400,000 calls per hour and comes with graphical reporting tools to empower managers to further enhance the efficiency of their contact centres. The system has multi-tenancy and clustering capabilities which are crucial in a distributed, virtual contact centre environment.

Version 6.0 provides agents with personal greetings and dispatch features for enhanced call-waiting management. It also includes basic IP recording, dial from SMS, a new interface towards business applications – for example SAP – for client integration, and multimedia options to better interface with customers. The system also comes with enhanced configuration, management and reporting functions.

Paul Johnson, Head of Enterprise Sales for Aastra Telecom UK, said: “Contact centres, specifically those based on IP, are growing the world over. Customers rightly expect reduced waiting times and better service. To remain competitive contact centre managers need better routing, interaction and reporting technologies to deliver those high standards. By integrating techologies, helping to increase agent productivity and improving quality of service Solidus eCare 6.0 provides this competitive edge.”

Johnson added that the all-in-one contact centre system means simplified management and improved access to performance data across applications and sites. Solidus eCare offers a single point of contact and management for any form of communication.
